Experience Your Vacation Haven!

It has been said there are moments in life we live for … a week of sun, fun, and good friends. So why not make those times more memorable by securing a beachfront rental on the extraordinary Gulf of Mexico? Wave Catcher is located on desirable 30A, within the Dune Allen area, part of Santa Rosa Beach. It’s known for its idyllic surroundings and uncrowded beaches.

This house provides an extraordinary bird’s eye view from east to west of truly remarkable sunrises and sunsets. The designer of this home on stilts took full advantage of the view by installing floor-to-ceiling windows in the common area. In addition, an oversized window in the full-sized kitchen provides a breathtaking view of the rolling surf. There have been recent updates made to this home including new paint, new decking, and new furniture in the bedrooms and living area.

As you enter the main area, just inside the French doors, there is adequate seating for 12 to dine. The deck also offers plentiful seating for everyone to secure their favorite spot in the sun or to enjoy stargazing in the evening.

All four bedrooms have en suite bathrooms and smart TVs. The front-facing bedrooms have amazing Gulf views, while the back bedrooms overlook Oyster Lake, a very rare dune pond natural habitat. And, knowing how beach towels and bathing suits mount up, a separate laundry room with an ample cabinet, makes this chore a little more tolerable.

This venue comfortably sleeps ten.

Our rental house was Wave Catcher. It’s a beautiful house.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved everything about the house on the beach. We stayed 7 days. The house is located kinda close to the public beach access. We had problem with people from public beach access trying to set their umbrellas and chairs right in front of our chairs. ( between us and the beach). We had to ask people to move on down the beach on a daily basis. Some of them were nice about not setting up in front of our chairs but some had attitudes. I’ve rented different houses on different areas of the beach for several years and this has never been a problem. Not sure if it’s just Santa Rosa area but I will definitely look at proximity of public beach access for my next stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Wave Catcher was absolutely amazing! The house had everything in it we needed - the BBQ grill could have been updated. The only thing we were disappointed in was the TV situation of having to stream - no regular stations but all in all this was the perfect house. We will be back next year!

We Loved the Wave Catcher Rental
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home was the perfect size for our family. Everyone had their own bathroom and the open concept was great for family visiting times. The house was very clean and the location close to restaurants and shopping not to mention the beach was right off the house. I would definately stay there again and would recommend this home to my friends.

We loved it!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location. Close to everything but far enough for some privacy. Loved being able to walk right out to the beach from the house. We were there during busy season but had little traffic on the beach in the area. House was clean and very well stocked in all aspects. Only negative comment is I would have liked more comfortable patio furniture. Otherwise everything was great.
